Symbiont-11.8.2012Storm Safety Tips:

Before a Storm:

Remember the 30/30 Lightning Safety Rule: Look for lightning and go indoors if you cannot count to 30 before hearing thunder; stay indoors for 30 minutes after hearing the last thunder clap
Consider investing in a personal lightning detector
Remove dead or rotting trees and branches that could fall
Secure outdoor objects that could blow away or cause damage
Shutter windows and secure outside doors
Unplug electronic equipment
During the Storm:

Avoid contact with electrical equipment or cords, including devices plugged in for recharging (consider unplugging valuable electronics in case of power surge)
Water conducts electricity, so avoid contact with plumbing
Stay away from windows and doors and stay off porches
Do not lie on concrete floors or lean against concrete walls
Avoid natural lightning rods, such as tall isolated trees, and avoid isolated small structures in open areas
Avoid contact with metal, including farm equipment, motorcycles, golf carts, and bicycles
If you are driving, safely exit or pull over and park; do not touch any surface that conducts electricity in or outside of the vehicle
After a storm:

Never drive through a flooded roadway
Avoid storm-damaged areas
Help people who may require special assistance
Stay away from downed power lines and report them immediately
Watch your pets closely; keep them indoors if possible
